Control of regulatory T cell function by the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is a crucial gatekeeper of glucose catabolism in metabolic tissues. However, its role in regulatory T cells (Tregs) remains unknown. Here we report deleting transketolase (TKT), an indispensable enzyme of non-oxidative PPP, in Tregs caused a fatal auto-immune disease in mice. TKT deletion impaired suppressive capability without disturbing Treg cell number. Mechanistically, TKT deficiency caused Treg metabolic remodeling with decreased glucose catabolism, activated fatty acid and amino acid catabolism and uncontrolled oxidative phosphorylation. Moreover, excessive ammonia from deregulated amino acid catabolism impaired mitochondrial fitness while reduced α-ketoglutarate/succinate ratio led to DNA hypermethylation, limiting functional gene expression and suppressive activity of TKT-deficient Tregs. Therefore, our study identifies non-oxidative PPP as a new pathway for controlling Treg function.

Non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway controls regulatory T cell function by integrating metabolism and epigenetics

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are critical for maintaining immune homeostasis and preventing autoimmunity. Here, we show that the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) regulates Treg function to prevent autoimmunity. Deletion of transketolase (TKT), an indispensable enzyme of non-oxidative PPP, in Tregs causes a fatal autoimmune disease in mice, with impaired Treg suppressive capability despite regular Treg numbers and normal Foxp3 expression levels. Mechanistically, reduced glycolysis and enhanced oxidative stress induced by TKT deficiency triggers excessive fatty acid and amino acid catabolism, resulting in uncontrolled oxidative phosphorylation and impaired mitochondrial fitness. Reduced -KG levels as a result of reductive TCA cycle activity leads to DNA hypermethylation, thereby limiting functional gene expression and suppressive activity of TKT-deficient Tregs. We also find that TKT levels are frequently downregulated in Tregs of patients with autoimmune disorders. Our study identifies the non-oxidative PPP as an integrator of metabolic and epigenetic processes that control Treg function.
